The results demonstrate that morbidity/mortality and accelerated target organ damage induced by inhibition of nitric oxide synthase in SHR was attenuated by treatment with a selective p38 MAPK inhibitor, SB-239063AN. The organ protection observed in the heart and kidney was not associated with preservation of endothelial function.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
